Condition Rating
Excellent
Despite being built in 1953, the property has undergone extensive and high-quality renovations, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom, as explicitly stated in the description and clearly visible in the images. The kitchen features modern shaker cabinets, new countertops, a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and contemporary lighting. The bathroom is fully modernized with a floating vanity, stylish tiling, and updated fixtures. These key areas appear virtually new and meet current quality standards, making the property move-in ready with a highly desirable, contemporary aesthetic.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: Strategically located very close to the Meta Campus, major freeways, and shopping areas, offering excellent convenience and strong investment potential.
Updated Interiors: Features a recently remodeled kitchen and modernized bathroom, providing a move-in ready condition and contemporary appeal.
Single-Family Home: As a single-family residence, it offers privacy and land ownership, a highly sought-after asset in the competitive East Palo Alto market.
Generous Lot Size: The 6,000 sqft lot provides ample outdoor space, potential for landscaping, or future expansion opportunities like an ADU.
Recent Price Adjustment: The property has seen a significant price reduction from its original list price, indicating a motivated seller and potentially better value for buyers.
Cons
Limited Bathroom Count: With only one bathroom for three bedrooms, this could be a functional constraint for families and may impact broader buyer appeal and future resale value.
Older Construction: Built in 1953, while cosmetically updated, the property may still have original core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) that could require future maintenance or significant upgrades.
Compact Square Footage: At 1,010 sqft, the interior living space is relatively small for a single-family home, which might limit its appeal to buyers seeking more expansive living areas.
